Eco-driving
Eco-driving is a range of everyday practices that allow the motorist to optimise their fuel consumption and CO2emissions.
Optimise the use of your
gearbox
With a manual gearbox, move off gently,change up without waiting and drive by changing up quite soon.
With an automatic or electronic gearbox, stay in Drive "D"or Auto "A"
, according to the type of gearbox, without pressing theaccelerator pedal heavily or suddenly.
Drive smoothly
Maintain a safe distance between vehicles, use engine braking rather than the brake pedal, and press the accelerator progressively. These practices contribute towards a reduction in fuel consumption and CO2 emissions and also helps reduce the background traffic noise.
If your vehicle has cruise control, make use of the system at speeds above 25 mph (40 km/h) when the traffic is flowing well.
Control the use of your
electrical equipment
Before moving off, if the passenger compartment is too warm, ventilate it byopening the windows and air vents before using the air conditioning.
Above 30 mph (50 km/h), close the windows and leave the air vents open.
Remember to make use of equipment that canhelp keep the temperature in the passenger compartment down (window blinds...).
Switch off the air conditioning as soon as the desired temperature is attained.
Switch off the demisting and defrostingcontrols, if not automatic. Switch off the heated seat as soon as possible.
Switch off the headlamps and foglamp whenthe level of light does not require their use.
Avoid running the engine before moving off,particularly in winter; your vehicle will warmup much faster while driving.
As a passenger, if you avoid connecting your multimedia devices (film, music, videogame...), you will contribute towards limitingthe consumption of electrical energy, and soof fuel.
Disconnect your por table devices beforeleaving the vehicle.

Visibility
Lighting control System for selection and control of the various front and rear lights providing the vehicle's lighting.
Main lighting
The various front and rear lamps of the vehicle
are designed to adapt the driver's visibilityprogressively in relation to the climatic and lightconditions:
- sidelamps, to be seen,
-
dipped beam headlamps to see without dazzling other drivers,
- main beam headlamps to see clearly when
the road is clear.
Additional lighting
Other lamps are installed to fulfil therequirements of particular conditions of
visibility:
- a rear foglamp,
- front foglamps.
In some weather conditions (e.g. low temperature or humidity), the presence of misting on the internal sur face of theglass of the headlamps and rear lampsis normal; it disappears after the lamps have been on for a few minutes.

Visibility
In good or rainy weather, both day and night, the front foglamps and the rear foglamp are prohibited. In thesesituations, the power of their beams may dazzle other drivers. They shouldonly be used in fog or snow. In these weather conditions, it is your responsibility to switch on the foglamps and dipped beam headlamps manuallyas the sunshine sensor may detect sufficient light.
Do not forget to switch off the frontfoglamps and the rear foglamp when they are no longer necessary.
Switching on the lampsafter the ignition isswitched off
To reactivate the lighting control, rotate the ring to the "0"position - lamps off, then to the desired position. On opening the driver's door atemporary audible signal warns thedriver that the lighting is on.
The lamps, with the exception of thesidelamps, switch off automatically after a maximum duration of thir ty minutes to prevent discharging of the battery.
Switching off the lampswhen the ignition is switched off
On switching off the ignition, all of thelamps turn off immediately, except for dipped beam if guide-me-home lighting is activated.
